Spirited Away showing at the Edible Cinema

[darkstorm]

Just seen in Short List magazine today, Studio Ghibli's Spirited Away will be showing at the Edible Cinema in Aubin Cinema, London on August 25 - 26.

Those who attend the unusual screening will "receives a series of numbered food packages to consume at specific points during the film along with a Bombay Sapphire cocktail inspired by the film. The smell, texture, even the way your mouth feels after eating the contents of the packages will correspond to what’s happening onscreen & heighten your sensory experience."

Sounds interesting! Too bad I can't go but if you want more details and to book, go here; http://www.aubincinema.com/Movie/363

That sounds really cool, let's read on...

The film is Studio Ghibli’s weird and wonderful 'Spirited Away'. Imagine eating foaming tapioca 'soap' powder as Sen bathes a filthy river spirit at the bathhouse onscreen. Or when bathhouse worker Lin eats a roasted newt you’re also eating the strangest sweet-savoury crunchy treat you've ever tasted.

Hmm.

But no, seriously, that sounds awesome, and I love Sen to Chihiro. Goddam London.

I can watch Spirited Away and eat soap at home though...

I like the sound of this. But I might be too scared to actually do it.

This reminds me more of Hansel and Gretel.
